Orchard Light Tables

Light Tables & Light Boxes from Orchard

In your standard run-of-the-mill site office or drawing office, you have many things in common; Professionals doing their best to deal with reams of large A0, A1 and A2 paper. Storing it, filing it, archiving it, retrieving it and, above all, looking at it. 

At Orchard, we have worked closely with the front line professionals for over 25 years - people who deal with these paper management challenges daily. We have used this to continuously improve and develop our products to better meet the real demands placed on them in the workplace.


We Know What You Need

We know what you require from a light box or light table. From on site contractors to architects, designers and photographers. We provide the very best range of lighting equipment to let you get on with scrutinising, finishing, tracing and reviewing plans or images. 

Consistent light distribution and accurate colour reproduction comes as standard on all our light boxes, giving you a backlit table you can rely on, and as a manufacturer we can modify any of our light tables or light boxes to meet specific requirements.

Lighting the way

Today light tables and light boxes are used for an unprecedented number of applications. Barring the usual photography and graphic design work they provide elegant solutions to problems faced by some industries; quite often nothing to do with paper or design.

Over the past 20 years we have produced lighting tables and illumination systems designed for highly specialised and industry specific procedures. One area where light boxes are extensively used is in the food industry. A professional light box is the ideal way to check the quality and consistency of food produce. Comparing bacon and the colour of tea leaves are just a few areas where having an even and reliable back light can be the key to becoming the market leader.

Testing in laboratories also may call for a large, evenly lit work surface. Calculating the absorption rate of different materials for use in nappies or other sanitary products is made easier with the correct equipment, whilst sexing flatfish is only made possible by having a strong light source to hold the fish up against.

Replicating daylight indoors by fixing light boxes in fake window frames .... we can even fit them with adjustable dimmer switches to simulate an overcast day. We are still trying to work out how to replicate night time.
